Flexible first year

Candidates wishing to proceed to the degree of Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) or combined degrees with Science, Arts, Commerce, Law, or Project Management, may choose to enrol in the Flexible First Year pathway. For details on eligibility for entry to this pathway consult the course resolutions pertaining to Flexible First Year.
Candidates decide on the stream of Engineering to pursue once they have completed the first semester of the Flexible First Year pathway.

 

Unit of study Credit points A: Assumed knowledge P: Prerequisites
C: Corequisites N: Prohibition

Semester 1

Foundation units
For Semester 1, maths, computing, and PEP units will count for any stream the candidate ultimately chooses.
MATH units of study offered by the Faculty of Science shown in the tables can be replaced by an equivalent advanced level unit, subject to prerequisite conditions (as required by the Faculty of Science) being met. Candidates considering doing advanced options should seek advice from their school before enrolling.
Flexible first year students starting in 2023 will take ENGF1112 in place of ENGG2112 Multi-disciplinary Engineering. This will give students space in Year 2 to catch up on their selected stream.
